Beyond Technical Analysis
Analysis of gold trend on June 16!
📣Gold information:
Gold prices (XAU/USD) climbed to $3,445 in early Asian trading on Monday, the highest level in more than a month, as rising tensions in the Middle East and expectations of a rate cut by the Federal Reserve boosted demand for safe-haven assets.
Investors remain focused on geopolitical risks despite stronger-than-expected U.S. economic data on Friday. The University of Michigan's consumer confidence index jumped to 60.5 in June, well above market expectations of 53.5 and 52.2 in May. However, the market largely shrugged off the data. Instead, attention turned to the escalating conflict in the Middle East, with Israel's recent attack on Iran fueling concerns about instability in the wider region. In response, Iranian authorities warned that they would "respond firmly to any adventurism," which boosted gold's appeal amid global uncertainty.
⭐️Technical review and analysis: For the current short-term operation of gold, it is recommended to rebound high and go long, with the upward resistance level of 3450-3500 and the downward support level of 3385-3335.

AUDCAD: The Real Move Happens After the TrapNot every trade needs to be flashy.
This one was clean. Simple. Intentional.
And it came after most traders got taken out.
What I Saw :
Price swept PDL: textbook sell-side liquidity.
But instead of jumping in too early, I waited.
Why?
Because I’ve learned something:
👉 The first reaction is often just noise.
👉 The second one, the one that fills into structure. That’s where clarity lives.
My Entry Logic:
After the sweep, price broke minor structure. That was my Change of Character. I will just have to wait for price to pull into the FVG below 50% fibs retracement. Stop below the low. Target at the PDH.
Nothing fancy. Just discipline .
Psychology Check:
I’ve taken this setup before and watched it run without me. Why? Because I used to hesitate. I wanted more confirmation… or feared being wrong.
But here’s the truth:
Your edge is only real if you’re willing to take the shot when it appears .
This wasn’t a guess.
It was system + structure + emotional control.
Bullish Trend Continuation I’m expecting a bullish continuation after price mitigates the newly formed 4H demand zone. The zone was created after a strong impulsive move, and I’ll be looking for LTF confirmation to go long, targeting the recent 4H high and daily liquidity above. Invalidation is a clean break below the zone.
BTC accumulates, back to 108,500Plan BTC today: 16 June 2025
Related Information:
The price of gold is nearing its all-time high as tensions in the Middle East escalate, but analysts say they’re doubtful Bitcoin will do the same as investors prioritize other safe-haven assets.
The price of gold rose to $3,450 per ounce on Monday, just $50 shy of its all-time high of just below $3,500 in April, according to TradingView.
The usually slow-to-move asset has gained a whopping 30% since the beginning of the year, catalyzed by US President Donald Trump’s trade tariffs and, more recently, an escalation of military action in the Middle East following an Israeli missile strike on Iran on June 13, which caused Bitcoin prices to fall.
Gold prices have also been linked with inflationary pressures, as it is considered a safe haven and an inflation hedge by investors.
personal opinion:
The crypto market recovered at the beginning of the week after being affected by war news. It will almost certainly continue to maintain the 4.5% interest rate, so it will be difficult to break ATH this week.
Important price zone to consider :
Sell point: zone 108.400 - 108.600 SL : 109.100
Take profit : 107.900 - 107.000 - 106.000
Sustainable trading to beat the market
when Jerome says spike, the markets asks how low/high"Watch what they do, but also how they say it."
In the high-stakes world of central banking, few things move markets like the subtle wording of a Fed statement, But beyond the headlines and soundbites, one market absorbs this information faster—and with greater clarity—than almost any other: the bond market.
💬 What Is "Fed Speak"?
"Fed speak" refers to the nuanced and often deliberately vague language used by U.S. Federal Reserve officials when communicating policy expectations. It includes:
FOMC statements
Dot plot projections
Press conferences
Individual speeches from Fed officials
nerdy tip: the Fed aims to influence expectations without committing to specific outcomes, maintaining flexibility while steering market psychology.
📈 The Bond Market as a Decoder
The bond market, particularly the U.S. Treasury market, is where real-time interpretation of Fed policy plays out. Here's how it typically reacts:
1. Short-Term Yields (2Y, 3M) = Fed Expectation Barometer
These are the most sensitive to near-term interest rate expectations. If the Fed sounds hawkish (more rate hikes), short-term yields jump. If dovish (hinting cuts), they fall. At the May 7, 2025 FOMC meeting, the 2-year Treasury yield (US02Y) experienced a modest but clear reaction:
Just before the release, yields were hovering around 3.79%.
In the first hour following the 2:00 PM ET (20:00 UTC+2) statement, the yield ticked up by approximately +8 basis points, temporarily reaching about 3.87%.
Later that day, it eased back to around 3.79%, ending the day roughly unchanged—a sharp, immediate spike followed by a reversion.
2. Long-Term Yields (10Y, 30Y) = Growth + Inflation Expectations
Longer-dated yields reflect how the market sees the economy unfolding over time. After a Fed speech:
Rising long-term yields = stronger growth/inflation expected
Falling yields = fears of recession, disinflation, or policy over-tightening
3. The Yield Curve = Market's Policy Verdict
One of the best tools to read the bond market's verdict is the yield curve—specifically, the spread between 10Y and 2Y yields.
Steepening curve → Market thinks growth is picking up (Fed may be behind the curve)
Flattening or Inversion → Market believes the Fed is too aggressive, risking a slowdown or recession
📉 Example: After Jerome Powell’s hawkish Jackson Hole speech in 2022, the 2Y-10Y spread inverted deeply—markets were pricing in recession risks despite a strong Fed tone.
🧠 Why Traders Must Watch Bonds After Fed Speak
🪙 FX Traders:
Higher yields = stronger USD (carry trade advantage)
Falling yields = weaker USD (lower return for holding)
📈 Equity Traders:
Rising yields = pressure on tech/growth stocks (higher discount rates)
Falling yields = relief rally in risk assets
📊 Macro Traders:
The MOVE Index (bond volatility) often spikes around FOMC events
Forward guidance shifts = big rotation opportunities (e.g., bonds > gold > dollar)
(BONUS NERDY TIP) 🔍 How to Analyze Fed Speak Through Bonds
✅ Step 1: Watch the 2Y Yield
First responder to new rate expectations.
✅ Step 2: Check the Fed Funds Futures
Compare market pricing pre- and post-statement.
✅ Step 3: Look at Yield Curve Movement
Steepening or inversion? That’s the market’s macro take.
✅ Step 4: Track TLT or 10Y Yield on Your Chart
Bond ETFs or Treasury yields reveal sentiment instantly.
🧭 Final Nerdy Thought : Bonds React First, Talk Later
When the Fed speaks, don't just read the words. Read the yields. The bond market is often the first to interpret what the Fed really means—and the first to price in what comes next.
So next FOMC meeting, instead of watching only Powell’s facial expressions or CNBC pundits, open a chart of the 2Y and 10Y. That’s where the smart money’s listening.

EUR/CAD Long Bias🚀 EUR/CAD – Strong Long Opportunity Based on Multi-Factor Confluence
Over the past week, I conducted a comprehensive macro and sentiment-driven analysis across G10 FX pairs. Among several potential setups, EUR/CAD emerged as the most fundamentally and technically aligned long opportunity, supported by a confluence of high-probability signals across positioning, macro divergence, and capital flow sentiment.
🔍 Key Drivers Behind the EUR/CAD Long Bias:
1️⃣ Macroeconomic Divergence (ENDO View)
🇪🇺 Eurozone has shown relative stability in core macro indicators:
Inflation continues to cool, providing flexibility for ECB rate guidance.
GDP growth remains structurally flat but not contracting — suggesting resilience.
🇨🇦 Canada, on the other hand:
Shows a deteriorating inflation-growth mix.
Retail Sales and Industrial Production trends are softening.
ENDO analysis flags CAD as one of the weakest among G10 currencies.
2️⃣ Positioning – COT Report & Z-Scores
Speculative traders are increasing their long exposure to EUR (COT net longs rising +13,887 last week).
Z-Score on EUR long positions: +1.33 → statistically elevated interest in long EUR exposure.
CAD positioning is flat-to-negative, with no bullish buildup in speculative flows.
This gives EUR a clear relative edge in terms of speculative conviction.
3️⃣ Score & EXO Sentiment Framework
EUR/CAD is one of few pairs showing clear directional consensus across:
✅ EXO Score Sheet: Long Bias confirmed.
✅ RR_w Sheet: Strong risk/reward rating supports further upside.
✅ IR Forecast Sheet: ECB-CAD policy spread favors EUR strength in medium term.
4️⃣ Market Sentiment – Risk Regime
We are currently in a “Risk-On” sentiment regime, which generally favors currencies like EUR over defensive, commodity-linked currencies like CAD.
CAD tends to underperform in reflationary sentiment waves — especially when Oil fails to support the currency.
5️⃣ Cluster & Trend Confirmation
While not a primary factor, cluster analysis shows that EUR/CAD is not in a weak trend regime.
Trend alignment over 30 and 14 days remains favorable.
🔚 Conclusion:
EUR/CAD is one of the few pairs this week that aligns across all analytical fronts: macro, positioning, sentiment, and structure. In a crowded FX environment, such confluence is rare and valuable.
Natural Gas: Bullish Setup Within a Triangle, Targeting $4.90A promising situation is forming in natural gas. I believe we can expect further growth in the asset. The trend is bullish, volatility has decreased, and the price has consolidated into what looks like a triangle — from which I expect an upward breakout.
What concerns me slightly is today's gap up at the open.
I'm not rushing into a position just yet. I'm planning to enter around the 3.671 level. Ideally, the gap would get filled — likely closer to the opening of the U.S. session or during it. For now, I'm observing and looking for a proper entry point.
Medium-term target: $4.90
And most importantly:
Always place stop-losses right away. Risk management is key: choose your position size carefully — this is a volatile asset. Don’t forget that!
Bullish Undercurrents Build in Soybean Oil MarketSoybean oil futures have rebounded nearly 14% in June, following a 5.7% drop in May, supported by tightening global supply, resilient demand, expanding biodiesel use, and steady U.S. production with some planting delays.
Severe drought in Brazil and Argentina, who together account for 45% of global soybean exports, has slashed yields by roughly 15%, tightening supply chains and boosting prices.
Strong Chinese demand, both for food and hog herd rebuilding, continues to be a major price driver. China imports nearly 18.5 million tons of soybean oil annually and remains the world’s largest consumer.
The USDA’s June WASDE report underscored a bullish backdrop: U.S. production is steady at 4.34 billion bushels for 2025–26, but ending stocks are projected to fall to 295 million bushels, down from 350 million in 2024–25, signalling a tighter domestic supply.
Adding to the bullish momentum, crude oil prices surged on 13/Jun amid escalating Israel-Iran tensions, indirectly supporting soybean oil due to its role in biodiesel production. Higher crude prices enhance biodiesel’s competitiveness, boosting demand for soybean oil as a feedstock.
Soybean oil futures also jumped after the EPA proposed higher-than-expected biofuel blending mandates. The Trump administration’s proposal, seen as a major win for the biofuels industry, is expected to significantly increase domestic soybean crush demand in 2026 and 2027.
TECHNICAL SIGNALS POINT TO BULLISH REVERSAL
Technical indicators suggest weakening bearish momentum in soybean oil. Since early June, prices have climbed above the 9-day, 21-day, and 50-day moving averages after starting the month below them.
Though the 9-day MA is still below the 21-day, the narrowing gap signals strengthening momentum and a possible bullish crossover.
The MACD and RSI indicate that selling pressure has subsided, with momentum now tilting bullish. If this strength persists, the uptrend in soybean oil futures could gain further traction.
OPTIONS DATA SIGNALS GROWING BULLISH MOMENTUM
For the week ending 10/Jun, Managed Money’s net long positioning in soybean oil futures fell by 22.6%, reflecting a 13% drop in longs and a 7.1% dip in shorts.
Rising implied volatility alongside prices and a positive skew suggest growing bullish sentiment, as market participants position for potential upside in soybean oil futures.
Source: CME CVOL
The rise in call OI across near-term contracts suggests growing bullish sentiment for soybean oil prices.
Source: CME QuikStrike
While selective increase in put OI reflects cautious hedging, pointing to expectations of further upside with some near-term uncertainty.
HYPOTHETICAL TRADE SETUP
Bullish fundamentals driven by rising Chinese demand, supply disruptions in South America, and a sharp uptick in crude oil, combined with supportive technical indicators and skewed options positioning, suggest further upside potential for soybean oil futures.
This paper posits a tactical long on CME Micro Soybean Oil August futures (MZLQ25 expiring on 25th July), targeting an uptrend in prices.
Investors can position against this backdrop using the CME Micro Soybean Oil Futures, which are sized at one-tenth (6,000 pounds) of standard contracts (which are 60,000 pounds). This allows for a cost-effective method to express a short-term bearish stance. As of 16th June, the minimum exchange margin on this contract is USD 190 per lot.
• Entry: USc 51/Pound
• Potential Profit: USc 57/Pound (57– 51= 6) x 6000/100 = USD 360
• Stop-Loss: USc 47.3/Pound (47.3- 51 = -3.7) x 6000/100 = USD 222

Oil Prices Surge Following Armed Conflict Between Israel and Ira
In the early hours of Friday, June 13, a new turning point in global geopolitics emerged and extended through the weekend: Israel launched an aerial attack using missiles and drones on Iranian nuclear facilities, triggering an immediate reaction in energy markets. The conflict has continued throughout the weekend, resulting in casualties on both sides, including significant losses within the Iranian military hierarchy. Brent crude spiked intraday by 13%, closing at $75.40—its highest jump in five years. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) also surged to $74, erasing its year-to-date losses. As of today, this upward movement appears to have paused temporarily.
Technical Analysis
From a technical perspective, Brent broke through the key resistance level of $74 and began the week reaching a peak of $78.46, opening the door to a potential bullish extension toward the psychological $80 level. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is now above 70 on daily charts, starting the week at 75.33%, indicating overbought conditions—albeit justified by the sudden spike in geopolitical risk. On the weekly candles, the price has broken out of a bearish consolidation pattern that had persisted since March. A weekly close above current psychological resistance highs could confirm a trend reversal if prices break through the $82.60 resistance during the week.
Today’s Asian session showed signs of a technical ceiling, with a red candle at the session open failing to surpass Friday’s highs, indicating weakness and pushing the 1-hour RSI down to around 56%. Since early May, oil has risen approximately 25%, suggesting a potentially revitalized trend. Looking at moving average crossovers, the 50-period MA has crossed above the 100-period MA, signaling the beginning of an uptrend. If this is confirmed by a cross above the 200 MA this week, prices could recover toward $96, assuming resistance levels are breached.
Bearish pressure during the Asian session is largely attributed to U.S. pressure on oil prices. The point of control has remained significantly below current prices—around $72–73—forming a wide bell-shaped profile concentrated in that range, where prices have traded most frequently since late last year.
Fundamental Analysis
The driver behind this sharp move is clear: the market is pricing in the potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz, through which approximately 20% of the world’s oil flows. Any disruption in this strategic chokepoint would dramatically increase logistical costs and the risk of short-term shortages.
Banks like JP Morgan warn that a total closure—although unlikely—could send crude prices as high as $130 per barrel. Currently, they estimate a 7% probability of such an outcome, but even a partial escalation is enough to maintain an elevated risk premium. U.S. weekly crude inventories also fell more than expected (-3.8 million barrels), adding further upward pressure. These tensions arise just as OPEC+ had begun to ease its production cuts. Current volatility may force a strategic rethink within the cartel, with emergency meetings possible if the Middle East crisis worsens.
Impact on Energy and Macroeconomic Markets
The immediate surge in oil prices reflects not only fears of physical supply disruption but also a reassessment of "tail risks"—now considered more plausible—such as a partial or full closure of the Strait of Hormuz. This scenario fuels a structural geopolitical premium that could persist for weeks or even months if the escalation continues.
The response among listed oil companies has been mixed. Giants like ExxonMobil and Chevron saw immediate share price increases, while more regionally exposed firms such as TotalEnergies and BP showed greater volatility. Meanwhile, crude oil shipping companies like Frontline or Euronav may benefit from longer, costlier, but potentially more profitable freight routes.
Persistently high oil prices could challenge expectations of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank, potentially sparking a new inflationary wave in the energy component. This could lead to unexpectedly tighter global financial conditions, especially in energy-dependent economies.
Net energy importers—such as India, Japan, or much of the eurozone—could see their trade balances worsen and currencies weaken, while exporters like Saudi Arabia, Russia, or even Venezuela could gain fiscal and political strength.
Global Repercussions
The conflict between Israel and Iran represents a new inflection point for the oil market. Its trajectory will be critical for commodities, capital flows, and monetary policy throughout the second half of the year.
Technically, the $96 per barrel zone becomes increasingly likely if the conflict drags on. Fundamentally, a strategic realignment among multilateral organizations and producers seems imminent, possibly ushering in a new phase of higher and more volatile oil prices.
The key lies in two factors: Iran’s response and the stance of the United States, which has condemned the attack but has yet to take direct military action. If Washington becomes actively involved, the impact could be far more profound—economically and geopolitically—and markets are beginning to price in that risk.
The conflict also threatens to derail diplomatic efforts between Tehran and Washington, which had recently resumed with the goal of reviving the 2015 nuclear deal. The attack has frozen those talks and prompted Iran to announce severe retaliatory measures, adding another layer of uncertainty for global markets.
Investors have responded by shifting clearly toward safe-haven assets such as gold, which rose more than 2% during the session, and the U.S. dollar, which regained ground against major emerging market currencies.

Is Digital LiDAR the Eye of Autonomy's Future?Ouster, Inc. (NYSE: OUST), a key player in the small-cap technology landscape, recently experienced a significant boost in its share price following a crucial endorsement from the United States Department of Defense (DoD). This approval of Ouster's OS1 digital LiDAR sensor for unmanned aerial systems (UAS) validates the company's technology. It highlights the growing importance of advanced 3D vision solutions in both defense and commercial sectors. Ouster positions itself as a foundational enabler of autonomy, with its digital LiDAR distinguishing itself through enhanced affordability, reliability, and resolution compared to traditional analog systems.
The DoD's inclusion of the OS1 sensor within its Blue UAS Framework represents a strategic victory for Ouster. This rigorous vetting process ensures supply chain integrity and operational suitability, making the OS1 the first high-resolution 3D LiDAR sensor to receive such an endorsement. This approval significantly streamlines procurement for various DoD entities, promising expanded adoption beyond Ouster's existing defense engagements. The OS1's superior performance in weight, power efficiency, and rugged conditions further underscores its value in demanding applications.
Looking ahead, Ouster actively develops its next-generation Digital Flash (DF) Series, a solid-state LiDAR solution poised to revolutionize automotive and industrial applications. By eliminating moving parts, the DF series promises enhanced reliability, longevity, and cost-efficient mass production, addressing critical needs for autonomous driving and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS). This forward-looking innovation, combined with the recent DoD validation, firmly establishes Ouster as a pivotal innovator in the rapidly evolving landscape of autonomous technologies, driving its ambition to capture a substantial share of the $70 billion total addressable market for 3D vision.

ANYONE HAVE MUSCLE CRAMPS?
The FED on June 18 will be decisive for the stock market!Several fundamental factors will have a strong influence on the stock market this week, including trade diplomacy, geopolitical tensions and the FED's monetary policy decision on Wednesday June 18.
1) The FED on June 18, the fundamental highlight of the week
The stock market week will be dominated by one fundamental event: the US Federal Reserve's (FED) monetary policy decision scheduled for Wednesday June 18. This meeting promises to be crucial for the summer direction of the financial markets, against a backdrop of uncertainties linked to the trade war and an economic cycle nearing maturity. Although the consensus is for the US Fed Funds rate to remain unchanged, with a 99% probability according to the CME FedWatch Tool, investors' attention will be focused on the Fed's updated macroeconomic projections.
The expected evolution of inflation, employment and the Fed Funds rate will be at the heart of the debate, as will the tone of Jerôme Powell's press conference. The market, now expensive both technically and fundamentally, is demanding more accommodative signals to extend its rally.
2) The market wants confirmation of two rate cuts by the end of 2025
What investors now expect from the FED is not so much immediate action on rates as a clearer roadmap for the end of the year. Explicit confirmation of two rate cuts by December 2025 would represent the minimum required to support current equity market levels, particularly the S&P 500, which is trading close to its all-time highs.
However, the central bank remains under pressure, torn between calls for monetary easing and caution in the face of a possible rebound in inflation, particularly under the impact of customs tensions. If Jerome Powell reaffirms the Bank's wait-and-see stance, this could lead to market consolidation. Conversely, downwardly revised inflation forecasts and a Fed Funds curve pointing to further declines could be interpreted as a clear signal of a pivot.
We will also have to keep a close eye on the developments announced regarding the reduction of the Quantitative Tightening program.
Finally, beyond the fundamentals, the technical timing reinforces the importance of this meeting. The bond market is already providing clues, with a technical configuration that could herald an easing in yields if the Fed adopts a more conciliatory tone. In equities, the weekly technical analysis of the S&P 500 shows areas of overbought territory, reinforcing the need for monetary support to avoid a trend reversal. In this context, Wednesday's meeting is more than just a monetary policy decision: it is a strategic marker for the rest of 2025.
